For someone who takes life so seriously, I need a good dose of humour every once in a while to keep me sane (see Chesterton's Orthodoxy on the relationship between humour and sanity). And for that you can't get any better than Jeeves and Wooster. The BBC recently broadcasted a performance from the Cheltenham Literature Festival in which Martin Jarvis becomes Bertie Wooster, Jeeves and an array of other Wodehouse characters. It is SO funny! You can listen to the performance online HERE. I don't know how much longer the link will stay active, so hurry up and check it out while the fun lasts!
